Compound Interest:
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Option answer:

d. Interest = $10.64 and New Balance = $360.64

Answer:

A = $360.64

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $350.00

I (interest) = $10.64

Calculation Steps:

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 1.5/100

r = 0.015 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n)nt

A = 350.00(1 + 0.015/4)(4)(2)

A = 350.00(1 + 0.00375)(8)

A = $360.64

Summary:

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, with compound interest on a principal of $350.00 at a rate of 1.5% per year compounded 4 times per year over 2 years is $360.64.

Assume Argentina has production possibilities to produce either 35 batches of apples or 70 batches of peaches using 100 worker h
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

40

Explanation:

Batches of apples produced in one hour = 35/100 = 0.35

Batches of peaches produced in one hour = 70/100 = 0.70

total hours it would take to produce 15 batches of apples = 15 / 0.35 = 42.86 =  43 hours

this would leave (100 - 43) 57 hours to make peaches

Batches of peaches that can be made in 43 hours = 57 x 0.7 = 39.9 = 40 batches

Dimas [21]

Answer:

$8,119,048

Explanation:

Given that,

Amount of scholarships = $170,500 per year

Trust fund earns an annual rate of return = 2.1 percent

Let x be the amount contribute to the fund and assuming that only income is distributed,

2.1% of x = Amount of scholarships

0.021x =  $170,500

x = $170,500 ÷ 0.021

  = $8,119,048

Therefore, the amount of money that is contributed by the George Jefferson to the trust is $8,119,048.

Answer:

First year depreciation expense is $2,250

Explanation:

Total depreciation expense is given by:

Price - Salvage Value = 40,000 - 4,000 = 36,000

That $36,000 depreciation expense would be spread out for 200,000 miles.

So for the first year in which the truck is used 12,500 miles, the depreciation expense will be

\frac{36,000}{200,000}\times{12,500}{=2,250}

Question answered.

Note:

\frac{Depreciable \,Cost}{Units \,in \,Useful \,Life}{=Per-Unit\,Depreciation}

{Per-Unit\,Depreciation \times \,Units \,During \,Year = Annual \,Depreciation \,Expense
